United States Vice President Kamala Harris warned that the country’s democracy is at risk in an interview that aired over the weekend. Harris cited the officials and individuals who still believe in the false claim that the 2020 election was stolen from President Joe Biden’s predecessor.
In an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday, Harris warned that the country’s democracy is in danger due to the deep divisions among the public along with those who continue to believe in the false election fraud claims by the former president.
This comes as Republican candidates who are vying for various offices in the upcoming midterm elections in November are still running on the belief that the 2020 election was stolen.
“I think it is very dangerous, and I think it is very harmful. And it makes us weaker,” said Harris. “Through the process of what we’ve been through, we’re starting to allow people to call into question our commitment to (democratic) principles, and that’s a shame.”
Harris also went on to criticize the current state of the Supreme Court, which drew public outrage over its ruling back in June to overturn the 1973 landmark Roe v. Wade decision that guaranteed a woman’s right to an abortion.
Harris said the Supreme Court has now become an “activist court” with the 6-3 Conservative majority.
“We had an established right for almost half a century which is the right of women to make decisions about their own body as an extension of what we have decided to be the privacy rights to which all people are entitled,” said Harris. “And this court took that constitutional right away.”
When Harris was pressed on possible legislation that would codify Roe v. Wade, she said she would have to read it and see.
Harris also touched on the upcoming midterm elections, which would determine if the Democratic Party, of which both Harris and Biden are from, maintain their majority in both the House and the Senate.
Harris said the right to vote was also on the line in the coming elections or if the right-wing extremists would pass laws that would further restrict access to the ballot box.
Harris cited that there are 11 candidates for Secretary of State in the respective states who still believe the 2020 election was stolen, including several individuals who refuse to condemn the events of January 6.
